Awards season is here, with the Critics Choice Awards coming up this weekend.

Chelsea Handler is set to host the 28th annual event live from the Fairmont Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles on Sunday (Jan. 15). The ceremony will broadcast at 7 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.

While the Critics Choice Awards honor the best in film and television over the past year, a number of music stars have made the nominations cut. Lady Gaga’s “Hold My Hand,” Taylor Swift’s “Carolina,” and Rihanna’s “Lift Me Up” will battle it out in the best song category alongside “Ciao Papa” by Alexandre Desplat, Roeban Katz and Guillermo del Toro, LCD Soundsystem’s “New Body Rhumba,” and “Naatu Naatu” by Kala Bhairava, M.M. Keeravani and Rahul Sipligunj.

Elsewhere on the Critics Choice nominees list, Janelle Monáe earned a best supporting actress nod for her role in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery. Monáe will also receive the SeeHer Award, which recognizes a woman who embodies the values of the SeeHer movement, which advocates for gender equality and accurate portrayals of women and girls in advertising and media.

For those without cable, The CW can be streamed live on DirectTV Stream, YouTube TV and fuboTV (in select markets), all of which offer free trials. Looking for a deal? T-Mobile customers can save $10 a month off YouTube TV for a year, DirectTV Stream is discounted $50 over five months and Sling TV is $20 for the first month.

Hulu + Live TV is the more expensive option among the streaming packages mentioned, but you’ll get lots of bang for your buck with 75+ live and local channels, plus Hulu and Disney+. 

Elsewhere on the list of nominations, Everything Everywhere All At Once leads the pack with 14 nods. The Fabelman’s came in second place with 11 nods, followed by Babylon and The Banshees of Inisherin with nine nods, while Elvis and Tár snagged seven nominations each.
